This page is maintained by the Whepstead Historical Society

The Whepstead Historical Society is a group of like minded people keen to research, record and publish the history of Whepstead and surrounding district. We are based in Whepstead and are always keen to hear of any items about Whepstead that will help with our research.

We aim to publish our research here as and when it is completed in order to make it available to a wider audience. This means that it may be a bit piecemeal at first but should build up over time. We would love to receive material and photographs from anyone who has information about the village.

If you have any items of historical interest with a connection to Whepstead or would like to know more about the Society or our work please contact us via this link

If you use our material elsewhere please give the author and/or photographer credit!
